Summary

"Collaborative working and partnering between the public and private sectors, in some form or other, has been fairly common practice in the construction industry for over 100 years. However, its profile has risen only comparatively recently. In the UK, it is little more than 10 years since the most widely known Public Private Partnership, the Private Finance Initiative, was launched and yet it has already been described by some as 'the new economic paradigm'." "With its detailed presentation of contemporary issues on a wide range of construction PPP models, including project management, design quality and accountability, and illustrated with case studies, this book provides a valuable, practical resource for a range of professionals as well as students."--BOOK JACKET.
